DUI charge in Hoboken
I am so thankful Michael Rubas worked tirelessly to get my DUI case dismissed. He is an incredibly understanding and personable individual who helps you navigate the case without feeling overwhelmed by the legalities. Mr. Rubas went above and beyond to ensure the issue was handled correctly, which led to the court's dismissal of my case. Definitely the best attorney hands down!

Mr. Rubas is the best of the best! From the beginning, he listened and went out of his way to put my husband's mind at ease. He always kept us informed and made sure we understood next steps. He went above and beyond for us and we are so grateful! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

amazing defense
Attorney Rubas was recommended to me by another attorney. From the initial consultation, I found him to be very professional and easy to talk to. He is also a very good listener. He always kept me informed of any developments and successfully defended me. He is as good a criminal defense lawyer as anyone could hope for.
